Healing the mind through the body, Peter Levin

".. The shaking lasted almost an hour, at which point she recalled long-forgotten, terrifying feelings from an earlier time. At four years of age she had experienced hospital trauma, when she was held down by doctors and nurses during a tonsillectomy with ether anesthesia! With her body’s release of its frozen defensive processes, buried memories were also released.

Remarkably, she left the session feeling like herself again. Eventually and after a few more sessions, Nancy was taken off medication and was able to carry on a normal life without relapse.."
